Summary
Would have required cities and counties to complete a plan for the installation of electric vehicle charging stations in the public right-of-way and updated the requirements of the statewide assessment of necessary electric vehicle charging infrastructure the California Energy Commission (CEC) prepares pursuant to existing law. The bill would have also required CEC, working with CARB and the California Public Utilities Commission, to prepare a statewide assessment of the electric vehicle charging infrastructure needed to support the levels of light- and heavy-duty electric vehicle adoption required for the State to meet the goals of a specified executive order, a mobile source strategy, and achieving carbon neutrality as soon as possible and no later than 2045. Held on suspense in the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
